Ingredients:
Chicken - 1 kg

Method:
Grind the ingredients in the Grind list together, coarsely. Marinate the chicken with the ground powder, curd, ginger garlic paste, turmeric powder and salt. Keep closed in the fridge for about 1 hr.
After 1 hr, heat oil in a pan and fry the chicken pieces in to light brown color. Then rinse the marinade in the bowl with water and add to the chicken. Let it thicken. Switch off the stove.
Then in a separate kadai, heat oil and season it with the curry leaves, cut green chillies and coriander leaves. Pour the seasoned oil over the chicken. Mix in 1 tsp of lemon juice.
Himachal Tawa chicken is ready to serve.
